Restaurante Moche San Borja

It sits at Av. San Luis 2203 in San Borja and is one of the branches of Restaurante Moche, a brand that also has a shop in Miraflores and describes itself as typical Trujillo cooking, fish and seafood. Among the dishes the house itself promotes are beef seco, octopus choncholí and its 'manjar de los dioses'. Google rates it 4.3 across more than 1,600 reviews and lists a bar, private dining room, high chairs and reservations accepted. Our take: a northern Peruvian restaurant for long lunches, the kind that fills with family tables at the weekend, more hearty than refined. It opens 11:30 to 18:00 every day; reservations go through WhatsApp at 955 182 303. Curator's note: the domain listed on its Google profile no longer belongs to the restaurant, so we loaded no website; the photos are brand product shots.
